    You can always check your local junkyards. You might find one in decent condition and it definately won't cost you as much as the one in that link.

    What he ^^^^^^^ said. If you look hard you'd more than likely find 1 at half that cost.

    On 02 and older it is simply a blank molded area. I did this and its ok, I had the blank panel and added the cup holder giving me 4 cup holders up front. I will probably go back to the blank panel for a mounting location for my ham radio. The fold down one is not very strong and heavy drinks worry me.

    Re: Is it really that expensive?

    Hmmmm. I'm confused. I thought he was talking about the center console cupholders, but I guess he's talking about the POS fold-down model.

    I know the drop in cupholder for the center consoles is ridiculously expensive (I've seen them go for $50 on ebay consistantly). GM parts direct wanted $61 for it.

    I'd buy a console rather than have to buy a new glove box bezel, especially for those POS cup holders.

    I'd like to go for a full console but I have the four wheel drive lever on the floor. I want the second set of cup holders to hold different stuff like my control for my radio and other misc. things. Are they really that cheaply made? Thanks

    I'll might take mine out if it's worth $50 bucks.
    I hate it, hard as hell to fold up, not very stable.
    but then I won't have any cup holders.
    I dont have the ones in front of the jump seat.

    Why dont you get the console for a 99-02 and leave out the part that goes between the console and dash? I did it in my truck and really like it...you can get a filler piece to cover the hole in the front of it
